Taiga

Taiga is a Slack bot that acts as a programming tutor, explaining concepts, reviewing code and decoding error messages. It was built by Coyotiv for students at its School of Software Engineering and is open to other learners too.

After adding Taiga to a Slack workspace, you can message it privately or invite it into a channel and ask any programming question. It replies with explanations, code snippets, real-world examples and practice problems, and adjusts its explanations to how you learn.

Because it lives in Slack, learners can share answers and progress with classmates or colleagues in the same thread, and it works on any device that runs Slack. The site openly warns that, like any AI model, Taiga can sometimes give inaccurate answers.
